Episode 2834: There’s Something In The Fog

The All-Ireland club final between Watty Graham’s Glen and Kilmacud Crokes was one of the most controversial sporting events of 2023… and 7 days into 2024, they got a chance to go at it again. This time around, in yesterday’s semi-final in Newry, the action on the field was completed to everyone’s satisfaction… even if it was enshrouded in fog.

Oisin McConville saw as much of it as the rest of us, and we talk to him about Glen’s resilience, Jim McGuinness’ return to GAA management… and why he could be about to lose his Wicklow goalkeeper to the NFL.

We also discuss Eoin’s newly bald jawline, Fog On The Tyne, and who might overcome their hangover to win the Dioralyte O’Byrne Cup.
